Episode 18

If you seek glory and take enemy as your father,...

...I'll die with you today...

...and let you confront...

...your mother who died in grievance.

Take enemy as father?

What do you mean? Why did my mother die in grievance?

Are you hungry or what? Why can't you hang it upright?

Pull yourself together. No.

It's still inclined to one side. Put it upright.

What are you doing, grandma?

Everyone is busy for you, kid.

Look at you. You look indifferent.

It's not necessarily to be grand.

Lady Xinyue is a daughter of a noble family.

We need to treat her nicely.

You should dress up nicely to receive your bride.

Well, I still need to run some errands in the palace.

Let's talk about it later. -Later?

The ceremony is close at hand. -Yun Ye,...

...something has happened. What are you doing here?

Grandma.

Is your aunt marrying to another man?

Shouldn't it be at the man's? -No.

Brother Ye is marrying. You're his good friend,...

...so stay as his best man.

Well, you should decorate that side as well.

What has happened in the palace? -Hang it upright.

The palace?

Nothing. -That's great.

No. Look at this.

It's satiating, but it doesn't last long.

It's gone bad after a few days of rain. Smell it.

Calm down. There's plan B.

What?

What did you say? They've all gone bad.

I knew that you'll encounter it, so I've got it ready.

"World the unite"? What's it?

"Unite the world".

Immortals are certainly different. You write it from the back.

It doesn't matter.

What's this?

This is called instant noodle. It's prepared for all of you.

Instant noodle?

Is it edible? -Try it.

Don't fool me.

It's crispy.

Eating it dry is one of the methods.

Another way is to eat it in soup. -Soup?

How? -Yes, soup.

To eat it in soup, you need these two.

Dehydrated beef and dried vegetables.

How do you make it? -It's simple.

This is soup noodle?

Try it.

It's a big slice of meat.

It's truly noodles.

You're awesome.

It'd be better if you'd go with a bit of garlic.

Noodle tastes less delicious without garlic.

Where have you been, sister? I've been looking for you.

No one knows that I was out, I suppose?

The Crown Prince sent someone here this morning.

I sent him away with an excuse. I suppose that they weren't aware.

Get inside, Linglong. I want to stay alone.

Uncle Tian, is it the truth?

My mother was killed by him?

Why do you want to force me?

Are you happy doing that?

I never wanted to bestow your mother...

...because I won't stir the court for my private benefit.

I advise you to forget about it.

Godfather, this isn't trivial matter.

Can you trust the man who saved you?

I saw it with my own eyes.

The army of Prince of Qin shot the Mohists and Ruolan.

I saw Li Er killing the innocent people.

Furthermore, the man who saved me...

...holds the token given by Li Er to Jing Junhong.

It's damaged by fire,...

...but I studied it carefully. It's indeed Prince of Qin's token.

Tighten it.

It tastes nicer in soup.

I'll make more instant noodle then deliver it to you.

That's great. My father will be very pleased by it.

He used to think of kidnapping you to his kitchen.

Your wedding does come swiftly.

When did His Majesty grant the marriage?

Why is the palace so quiet when the Princess is marrying?

I'm marrying Xinyue.

You're marrying Xinyue?

What about the Princess?

You're doing it for Lu family?

How does it end up like this? Has the Princess been informed?

I'm going to see her in the palace. I should inform her...

...before my wedding somehow. -She won't spare you...

...if she knows about it.

What about Chengqian? No response?

I have no time to consider him. It's his idea.

It might be the only way to save Xinyue.

I thought that the military affair is complicated enough.

The relationship among you is more complicated.

Don't worry. Leave the forage affair to me.

I admire you, really.

You have my respect. -Go now and don't be late.

All right. Let's go.

What brings you here?

What happens to your face?

Nothing.

I want to tell you something. -What's it?

Don't say it if you find it difficult to tell.

Lady Xinyue will survive...

That's a good thing.

...as my wife.

What are you saying? I don't get it.

Your engagement request...

...is meant for her? -If I don't do that,...

...not only that Xinyue will die, Chengqian might collapse.

All right.

Lady Xinyue is a good woman. Be nice to her.

That's perhaps the best outcome.

Lan'er.

You know that I love you.

I swear that I won't..... -It's okay.

Leave now.

Don't worry. I'll give you an explanation.

I'm back, grandma.

Tell me where you're going to pick up your new wife.

I'll receive her with a few brothers in the imperial court.

You may just wait at home.

Kneel!

You should've told me the truth by now.

I don't understand. What truth that you're expecting?

Notice of executing the entire Lu family...

...has been disseminated throughout the city.

Don't think that I'm so muddleheaded to learn the truth.

I'm wrong, grandma. Don't be angry.

I shouldn't have kept it from you.

Lu Shou is punished for insulting His Majesty.

You know Lady Xinyue. Hadn't she provided Xiao Nan a shelter,...

...our family would've never been reunited.

If she doesn't marry to our family,...

...she'll be sentenced to death.

Thus, you must approve the marriage.

Brother Ye, it's not that I'm against the marriage,...

...but you should've...

...told me the truth earlier.

I know and I'm aware of Xinyue's difficulty.

We encountered the same situation before.

She's so young,...

...but she needs to hold her own wedding...

...as well as funeral of her family. What a pity.

Thus, I've asked your aunt to prepare her a wedding robe.

We'll hold the wedding.

I've prepared the carriage for you.

You can bring her to our house at any time.

Thank you, grandma.

I'm responsible for the incident on that day,...

...but the past is irreversible.

Please don't worry. I'll take good care of Xinyue.

Baron Yun, please get up.

Please get up.

I don't blame you.

It's the fate of my family.

I'm thankful for you're trying...

...to save Xinyue. Among a thousand words,...

...I'd only beg for one last thing.

What's it? -Xinyue seems gentle,...

...but in fact, unyielding.

I'm not worried of anything else...

...except that she'd commit..... -Don't worry.

I'll keep an eye on her. -Good.

Grandpa. -Yue'er.

I'll beg the Crown Prince to save you when I see him.

You must wait for me. -Yue'er.

Sorry for causing you the trouble. -Grandpa,...

...don't blame yourself. I did it with my own willingness.

The Crown Prince will be nice to me.

Good. That's good.

You won't be a member of Lu family after marrying him.

You must stay out of Lu family matter from then onwards.

What are you saying?

I'll find a way to save you.

I won't live if I fail.

Don't do that. His Majesty wants to set up his prestige through it.

I'll be executed for sure. Don't do anything silly.

It's time. Hurry.

Yue'er.

I bid you farewell.

Let's go. -Yue'er.

Grandpa. -Don't do anything silly!

You must live on!

Commoner Lu Shou belittled the royal sovereignty.

He'll dishonour scholars who serve the imperial court...

...and encourage gangsterism. He'd be punished to warn the rest.

Thus, he'll be sentenced to death.

No!

Sister Xinyue, you're awake.

Where's this? -This is Yun family.

Yun family?

What's the time now? -Child.

My condolences, Lady Xinyue.

Xiao Nan.

Brother Ye.

I know that you might not accept it so soon,...

...but I'm entrusted by Chengqian.

You must marry me today.

Grandpa...

...has just been executed,...

...but then I'm holding my wedding happily?

You may live on if you're no longer with Lu family.

Isn't it suffice after executing my family?

His Majesty wants to add insult to them?

I won't let him.

Let go!

Let go! Give it to me!

As the eldest daughter of Lus, I can't dishonour my family.

Let me die!

Your family will come to an end for real if you're dead.

You can't do this. Who else can speak for them after this...

...if someone insults your family? -What can I do as a woman?

You should let me reunite with my family in hell...

...than living on dishonourably. Allow me, Brother Yun.

Please! -Can't you live on alone?

I was alone since young. Should I be dead, too?

I.....

Think about it. Don't do anything silly.

Your Highness, I'm ordered by the Empress...

...to serve you medicine. It shouldn't be seen by His Majesty.

I've asked you to leave!

Leave us. -Yes.

You're injured?

It seems like you fought with Yun Ye.

You've learned about it?

I have no other choice, sister.

I knew that you're engaged with Yun Ye, yet I forced him.

I can't bother much for the sake of Xinyue.

You may vent it on me.

You've said that.

Fine.

I've hit you. I won't hold any grudges anymore.

I can't blame you anyway. It's our father.

I didn't know that he'd be so cruel.

Don't say that. -What else should I say?

Look at you now. Do you still call yourself a man,...

...the Crown Prince?

Everyone should fight for the thing...

...that they want. Don't behave like a mud.

Since you've decided, don't regret it.

Get over it.

Sister,...

...I'm sorry.

Grandma, let's get someone to coffin Mr. Lu and the rest,...

...then bury them properly. -Don't worry.

I've sent someone there.

Xinyue is our family member from now on.

I'll be nice to her.

Brother Ye, you'll be her husband after this.

It doesn't matter how nice we treat her...

...when you don't.

If you're nice to her,...

...she'll be nice to us in return. Don't you think so?

All right, cheer up or the servants will laugh at us.

Xinyue will feel awkward.

Yes. -I got it.

Don't be sad, my child.

I've coffined your family and your grandpa.

You can hold a proper funeral for them after today,...

...okay?

I'll keep...

...the kindness of your family in mind.

Don't say that. We're family, my child.

Don't talk like a stranger. Don't blame Brother Ye.

He's ordered by His Majesty. He has no choice.

I never blame Brother Yun.

I resent being the one last person in Lu family.

I can't even claim my death.

Come.

Child, after Yun family was raid,...

...they fled and scattered,...

...leaving just me, guarding the ancestral hall.

I wondered why I'm still alive...

...and the significance of that.

Then, I thought...

...that Yun family will have nothing left if I'm dead.

No one will remember us. Thus,...

...I'm held up until now.

See? I've gone through it.

I've got Brother Ye back.

Our family is together again.

We can live a new life, right?

Xiao Nan used to tell me about your family matter.

I've just realised how much that you've suffered.

I get what you mean. I won't commit suicide anymore.

I want to hold a proper funeral for grandpa and the rest.

It must be tough for you.

Don't worry.

I'll marry to Brother Yun...

...and spend my life with him.

That's good.

Have some porridge, Sister Princess.

Should we water the aloe vera already?

Sister Princess, this belongs to Baron Yun.

Are you not angry at all?

Baron Yun always comes here to see you.

He'd make a fuss when you ignored him.

Everyone in the palace favours him.

However, he's just a scoundrel, a liar.

He has his own difficulty. -Difficulty?

Shouldn't we be with our love one?

Why is he marrying another woman? I should get rid of this.

No.

Leave it here.

Where are you going, sister? -You don't need to come along.

I want to go out and take some fresh air.

Gather. Handsome bridegroom...

...and virtuous bride.

Auspicious family, blissful marriage.

What are they doing? -It's to ask for fortune.

Let's move on.

You should distribute some money to everyone.

Do you think that I have money with me?

Scatter.

Where are you going? Go and receive the bride.

The bride has arrived.

Open the door.

Look.

Look, this is really amazing.

I hear that the wedding is granted by His Majesty.

I wonder who the lucky woman is.

I know. My wife once delivered something to their family.

It's the eldest daughter of Lus. -Lu family?

They..... That explains the bridegroom's expression.

Sir Lu is such a silly man.

He shouldn't have insulted His Majesty.

Not only that he's been sentenced to death,...

...his granddaughter will definitely suffer in Yun family.

What are you saying?

Sir Lu was trying to stop His Majesty from war expedition.

If we're declaring a war, your son will be recruited by army...

...and your food will be requisitioned.

It's true.

In that case, this is quite a pathetic wedding.

Belt of offspring.

Cross over saddle for safety.

I've been telling myself that Xiao Ran is the one that I love.

Now, I'm drawing you and I love you.

I've presented my heart to you.

You should keep it forever, understand?

This diamond is as if our love.

Precious and solid against the test of time.

My future belongs to you. Will you marry me?

A girl in the house is pretty like flower. She comes with rain...

...followed by rainbow without the need for an umbrella to shelter.

The time has come. Bride and bridegroom shall get ready to bow.

First bow for harmonious family.

Arrival of the Crown Prince.

Chengqian, you must remain calm.

Sure, I will.

I come to congratulate Brother Yun Ye.

Present my gift.

Second bow to the ancestral hall.

Third bow to your spouse.

Forth bow for many children.

Rise.

Rinse hand and face.

Dine together.

Eat the millet.

Drink.

Dip the sauce.

Drink the wine.

You're beautiful. -I'm beautiful every day.

Complete.

Chengqian.

Xinyue wants me to give you this.

Love is gone after I turn around.

She wants to break up with me.

She's suffered a lot today. Surely she resents it.

Is Chengqian all right?

Check him out.

I've passed it to him.

Brother Yun, thanks for everything you do for my family.

Make yourself at home from now on.

I'll think of what to do next.

Brother Yun, I know...

...that I'm now your family.

I'll serve grandma nicely and carry out my duty as a wife...

...but today,...

...allow me to mourn my grandpa. -Don't misunderstand, Lady Xinyue.

I marry you to save you.

Chengqian loves you. I won't betray him.

You've been through a lot today. You must be tired. Rest early.

I'll take a walk outside.

Is it nice? Thank you, sir.

Look over there. -You haven't come over for days.

You can't just brush me off with a hairpin.

I'll be happy if you come more often.

He must be drunk.

Let's go over there.

You're here. Come this way.

Sir, you're drunk. I'll send you home.

Leave me alone! I'm not drunk.

I won't go anywhere.

Why are you here, Your Highness?

I want to drink. -If you insist,...

...come and drink at my mansion. I'll accompany you.

I'll drink at your mansion! -Please, Your Highness.

Let's go! -Please.

Fine wine.

Lan'er.

Lan'er, why are you here?

I'm here to congratulate you.

What are you kidding? You know that I'm not happy.

I persuade myself to move on even when today is tough.

I don't know how I can hold on to it...

...if you don't understand how I feel.

I understand,...

...but you're someone's husband anyhow.

Don't call me Lan'er again when you see me next time.

Sure, I won't call you Lan'er,...

...but Lan Lan or my wife.

I'm serious.

Didn't we have a deal? This is a matter of expediency.

I'll figure out a way for us.

There's no more "us" from now on.

What did you say? -Xinyue is a good woman.

Since you've decided to marry her, you should be nice to her.

I'll be nice to her. What about you? Who is to look after you?

I don't need you to look after me and don't bother about me anymore.

I won't forgive you if you try to...

...flirt with me again.

I know that you're sad. I'm sad, too.

What do you want from me?

Should I go back and tell them that I can't get married?

It's not necessary.

Take this back.

What are you doing? I'm not taking it back.

Remember. I'm still a Princess of Tang...

...and you're still the Baron.

We'll go on our own destiny.
